Our current brigade appliance is a 5/2000 Nissan Patrol obtained from Queensland Fire and Rescue Service through the Veteran Vehicle Replacement Program and outfitted as a fire appliance by AAA Engineering - Crows Nest.

This is our Unit 5.

The appliance is capable of carrying 3 crew in the cab and the required license for this appliance is an open C class.
